Re: Tizen?

Reinventing the wheel again ...

Delaying again ...

Changing the APIs and frameworks again ...

I only want a Debian/Ubuntu mobile computer. Today the only choice is the N900.

Invent Maemo, swap to Meego and then before it's known/working

Unhappy The End is Coming: What do we do next?

Re: Striping swap to increase performance under memory contention

I can assure you that you did nothing wrong with applying the patches, assuming you edited in the same way I did originally. It's simply that Nokia added swap_remap to swapfile.c and that seems to...

I've successfully rebuilt busybox from the N900 source and added the -p parameter. However, it doesn't pick up pri=X from /etc/fstab.

Re: [Announce] EBD - Enhanced Backlight Daemon

Yes, that would be nice. There is an opensource program "redshift" that does the same and it's packaged in (easy) debian. Problem is that it doesn't work, at least on my n900. Xrandr method does...

Re: [Announce] EBD - Enhanced Backlight Daemon

FWIW, this works absolutely beautifully. Smooth and consistent. ^5 on this.

@cutehunk04 - you didn't provide the entire filename. You're missing the extension.

Re: Proper vsync and reduction of tearing

Yes, it is. However, if you get the fix the tearing in Xorg, we could very probably fix 3D tearing. What is needed for that is mostly open.

Re: xserver-xorg-video-omap3 driver support

Caused by lack of vsync. This exists in MeeGo 3d drivers (kernel + userspace), but is really bloody hard to backport to 2.6.28.

Re: xserver-xorg-video-omap3 driver support

Maemo's "fbdev" is actually == fbdev + sgx extensions, which is better than -omap3.

We call it fbdev-sgx in MeeGo as to not conflict with existing -fbdev for other systems
